“The food is always hot and fresh. Simple walk thru and select. Very friendly and fresh food.“

“Lady serving has a great personality despite being SLOW. However... I havent had food this good in ages! I couldn't stop! Music could be more mixed... Hi, I'm white... but all around was worth the experience. Wokt come back, but you should try it once!“

“An amazing dining experience in every possible way!“

“Phenomenal experience!

Devan was the man- he took care of us - we sat upstairs which is the best table as you get to get a Birds Eye view of the hustle of a cool restaurant.

Green Salad is top 10 best in the city, right next to BarTaco’s Kale salad. And HUGE, we shared one and could barely finish it.

Lamb Pasta was outta control, it was my wife’s meal but I kept stealing bites.

Lamb burger was excellent, the masala fries were unique but very delicate and seasoned with something exotic.

Mussels were good but LARGE. I’m used to the kind that you can slurp, these you had to chew. Still yummy.

I had 2 daiquiris and shared 2 bourbon drinks , forgot the name, it was two words like “burly samsonite” or “brownie stowaway” - but RECOMMMENDED 🥃

Super romantic table upstairs. There are only 2 2-tops up there so I think you have to special ask for it. I wouldn’t even notice them if we had sat downstairs.

Will be back!“

“Amazing food. Excellent, friendly staff. Always a good atmosphere. The short ribs were especially delicious.“

“Great ace to find Geogia Grown local products, and Grocery. Best“

“All I can say is WOW. What an amazing dining experience. I would be very surprised if Avize doesn’t earn a Michelin star this year. Everything about this restaurant is top tier. Every item we had from the amuse bouche through dessert was a 10/10. You can taste the passion and desire for excellence in each dish. The menu is very creative but every dish is extremely well balanced and a joy to eat. Each dish is absolutely beautiful as well. The ceviche and tartare were the best we’ve had in recent memory. The bread service was insanely good. The black garlic butter so good I could have eaten it without the bread. The Fallow Deer entree was a work of art that tasted better than it looked. The potato rosti is the perfect potato side dish and a must try. The ice cream with caviar is an absolute must try as well. It sounds crazy but it was absolutely fantastic. The service was impeccable, easily the best service we’ve experienced in Atlanta in recent memory. Patrick was a tremendous server and the rest of the team provided the highest caliber service possible. I’d say this was a 100/10 dinner experience and we cannot wait to come back to try the different seasonal menus.“

“I had the pleasure of dining at Lazy Betty last night and I can not begin to tell you how wonderful the meal was. The attention to detail in the preparation and service was above the norm. Servers were friendly, personable yet not intrusive which is a difficult mix that they have mastered. I highly recommend this establishment if you want a culinary “experience” that will make your tastebuds explode with delight.“

“The Argosy has consistently great food and a fantastic tap list. It's a huge part of East Atlanta Village and a gourmand's dream.“

“My absolute favorite brunch spot!! Black owned, large outdoor patio, and even bottomless mimosas. EVERYTHING I’ve ordered from here is particularly elevated and well-seasoned. Veggie-friendly options and even their fruit bowl is actually good. Consistently the kindest staff that go above and beyond (shouts out to my most recent waitress Aaliyah and bartender Fifi). The owner pays incredible attention to detail. I just discovered it and have been there 4 times in the past 3 weeks, and my family from out of town insisted on going twice in one weekend lol.“

“I absolutely love this restaurant! Anytime I am in Atlanta and jave enough time, I stop and get their Shrimp & Grits. Winsome is a great Hostess and JaNelle was so sweet.“

“Dear Fresh 2 Order Leadership, I’m writing to recognize one of your team members, Ronald, who completely transformed our morning during a recent visit to your Concourse B location at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport. In the 20 minutes we sat and enjoyed breakfast, we witnessed Ronald serve with a rare combination of energy, encouragement, and a true servant’s heart. He didn’t just attend to F2O guests, he supported everyone in the shared seating area, radiating care, joy, and intentionality with every interaction. It was inspiring. As a certified life and business coach and the Chief Joy Officer of JOYInc., I frequently teach about building personal value propositions, regardless of role or title. Ronald is now one of my go-to examples. His presence demonstrated that impact and excellence are not confined to position, but are driven by character and heart. I’d like to personally send Ronald a gift of appreciation. Could someone from your team help facilitate this? I don’t know what you pay Ronald, but I’ll say this: he is worth his weight in gold. Thank you for hiring and empowering someone of his caliber. He represents your brand with exceptional integrity and humanity. With Gratitude and Awe! Clif“

“I’ve been a few times and it’s been great, but this time we went upstairs to explore (and also get happy hour specials), and Alessandro was the best bartender I’ve probably ever had. Incredible service, delicious drinks, perf. Vibe up there is lowkey like hunters cabin speakeasy which was unexpected but we stayed for the service up there!!“

“All the glowing reviews here are true. We were traveling out of the country on short notice and realized my wife's passport was inside the six-month expiration window. From the security guard who greeted us to the last staff member we dealt with, everyone was polite, friendly, professional, and efficient. Our 9am appointment was finished before 9am (we arrived at 8:30), and the new passport was ready for pickup before noon the same day. An excellent experience!“

“Excellent customer service given by Stanzio. He was knowledgeable and helpful on my food choices. He was very respectful, kind, and attentive to our needs. He was friendly and such a pleasant server. The food is to die for!! Simply Excellent restaurant!!“

“Food was amazing 😍 Everything tasted so fresh and flavorful — and the service made it even better. Already planning my next visit 🤩🥐☕“

“1) Saw one of my favorite artist! Show started on time. No problem with entry.
2) My host Queeny was pure bliss! She had the best energy and made my experience top tier.
3) Drinks and food arrive very fast when crowds at a minimal.“

“July 05, 2025 Greetings, This evening, I had the opportunity to celebrate my 40th birthday, and to mark the occasion, my partner and I chose to dine at a fine dining establishment in downtown Atlanta. Regrettably, after we visited your downtown Atlanta location, it became clear that my hope for an outstanding dining experience was unlikely to be met. Upon our arrival, we had to wait despite having made a reservation several hours earlier. Eventually, we were seated at a table no larger than a nightstand. I immediately observed that, unlike the other tables, the candle on ours was unlit. This should have served as an indication of the service to follow. Once seated, we were presented with the menu and asked for two sweet teas. Soon after, we placed our orders. After waiting twenty minutes, we realized that our drinks had been forgotten. We subsequently reminded our waitress that we had ordered two sweet iced teas. After an additional ten minutes, our drinks arrived. Fifteen minutes later, our food finally arrived. Upon its arrival, I noticed a sticky substance around the $75 steak I had ordered. After considerable effort to cut into it, I tasted the meat and found it to be overcooked—its flavor reminiscent of a meal unintentionally left on the grill by an intoxicated cook. It was unsatisfactory, and I requested a remake. At this point, we had spent over an hour at your restaurant, and the staff began cleaning up. Finally, around 12:05 a.m., the re-cooked steak was brought out. Although it was an improvement over the first, it still did not merit the price of $75. Given that my potatoes were cold and the minimal ice in my refilled iced tea had melted, I opted to forgo the steak altogether. My partner, who is more willing to accept mediocre service, encouraged me to take the steak back to the hotel, which led us to request a to-go box. Ten minutes later, we received a small cardboard box, barely big enough for my food. Further, we were not offered anything to carry the sauce in, utensils, or even a bag. Shortly after, we received our bill, which totaled approximately $195.00, excluding gratuity. At that moment, I was overwhelmed with emotion and informed my partner that I needed a few minutes outside to collect my thoughts. I found it challenging to rationalize $200 for a meal arguably valued at $20 and customer service worth $10. Despite my objections, my partner insisted on refraining from discussing this matter with a manager. He wanted to avoid any conflict on my birthday. While I appreciate his noble intentions, I possess a strong aversion to inequality in any form. The treatment we received in an establishment that professes luxury and exemplary customer service was inadequate and perhaps a sign of your treatment towards Minority LGBT customers. We deserved a better experience. Although my birthday weekend was great, this experience was horrible. I am genuinely disappointed with my visit to your Atlanta location. I would have had a more satisfying experience at a more casual establishment, such as Texas Roadhouse, for a fraction of the costû. Sincerely, Gregory A. Reid Jr. Brandon F. Williams“

“My god if I died tomorrow and got asked what was the best black and blue burger of my life it would be Marlow’s. So good I went back 2 days in a row just to confirm. Yall killing it. Great service at the bar. Thank you. No photos because I ate it too fast.“

“Great food, good drinks, ACF $15, lots of fun! Definitely try it!“

“I come here all the time but normally during night shift. Today was my first time coming in the daytime and I will never make that mistake again. Food is great I literally just wanted a side of greens but the cook during the daytime barely put any greens in the side sized box and I asked them if you could at least put a scoop more but I was told to pay again. Now what I’m used to is night shift they always fill it up to the brim for me. I will come back but never in the daytime again. I will note before I even paid I wanted to clarify if there was different sizes for greens because that all I came for I really love them plus they’re made with no meat, and I the lady with blonde locs said no and I said okay I just said can you make sure he fills it up at least she said sure. But when I saw the food I was disappointed and cause it wasn’t even filled up half way and I paid 7 dollars. I ate it because that’s what I came for but I’m highly dissatisfied this was the first time I ever been disappointed with them. But I still encourage you to go support the business they’re great people but I just will never come in the day time I again, because at least when I come at night I’m greeted when I come in.“

“Highest recommendations to our server Paola. She handled our large pre-wedding party like a pro. Great service, lots of fun. The best.“

“Tabby was in town and in usual Tabby flow she was exploring the atlasobscura website and came across The Consulate. As such, we decided to go. We had reservations for 06:15 on a Friday. Arriving about 20 minutes early as traffic happened to be light, we were able to be seated early without any issues. Upon entering the restaurant the hallway decor captures your attention as you focus on the selected hues of blue and artwork placement. Upon being seated we were immediately greeted by Cindy. Cindy arrived all smiles coupled with a huge personality and warm welcome. As this was our first time she took a moment to explain to us the menu selections, geographical inspiration, as well as answer the few questions we had about select items. Cindy’s education of the menu and experience with the foods added to the food deciding experience. Major shout out to Cindy. The ambiance of the restaurant is high energy, captivating and explorative. As you look around the restaurant it puts you in the mindset of being inside one of the classic true to theme castles in an Indiana Jones or Tomb Raider movie. LoL! At any moment Laura Croft could walk in and grab one of the items on display and head out for her next mission. LoL! I decided on the String Beans with a side of Mexican Rice and I was more than satisfied with the flavor profile of my meal. The string beans were flavor stacked with the slight sweet from the sauce and the spice from the peppers. The texture was spot on for a true sautéed experience as well as the portion was perfect… The Mexican rice paired well with the string beans as it provided a texture variation as well as it was seasoned well but not overpowering in comparison to the string beans. This was truly a 10/10 experience. The service, the environment, and the food were all superb. Whether for a personal 2 person dinner or after work friend vibe, The Consulate is truly a must try for any occasion.“

“We had an exceptional dining experience, thanks to the outstanding service from Faith, our waiter, and the expertly crafted drinks by Nick. Faith was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu, making sure our meal was perfect from start to finish. She went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed and made our 8th wedding anniversary celebration truly special. Nick's drink creations were impressive and added an extra touch of elegance to our evening. Beautifully presented and delicious, showcasing his skill and creativity. We are grateful for the wonderful service from both Faith and Nick and look forward to visiting again soon.“

“I really enjoyed saints and council. It’s a beautiful addition to colony square and the restaurant is very beautiful with a calming atmosphere. The food and drinks were amazing and our server King did a phenomenal job and I would definitely recommend this restaurant. 10/10!“

“If you are looking for an exceptional dining experience in the Lee + White district, Boxcar is on a completely different level than anything else in the immediate area. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The food, the drinks, and the atmosphere are unmatched, but what truly elevated our night was the impeccable service.

✨️ A massive shoutout to our server, Adrian. The light that shines from her personality is so incredibly bright and warm! She was extraordinarily personable while remaining completely professional. She gave us fantastic recommendations, provided flawless service, and went above and beyond to ensure we were taken care of and truly enjoying our time. She was an absolute joy and a huge reason why our experience was so memorable.

🏆 The leadership here clearly sets the tone for that amazing service. Dwayne, the manager, is a fantastic leader who knows how to engage with customers and run a happy, cohesive team that creates a genuinely positive atmosphere.

🍲 As for the menu, the chef is an absolute genius. I had the seasonal Miso Crunch Grain Bowl, and it was everything you want a dish to be: healthy, filling, perfectly balanced, and packed with a serious depth of flavor.

🍸 And, the cocktails! Oscar, the savant mixologist who designs the drink menu, has truly outdone himself with unique, creative, and balanced flavors. Boxcar has an excellent craft beer menu, but you must try their cocktails as well because they are divine.

🍹Kristi, our bartender, crafted them to absolute perfection. Do yourself a favor and order the Toasted Coconut Margarita, it is literally a tropical island getaway in a glass.🤪

Boxcar is doing everything right. Exceptional food, brilliant drinks, and a phenomenal team. I loved every minute of it and will definitely be back!“

“I had a amazing time at 5Church Atlanta. Went for friends birthday. A lot of other Restaurants in Atlanta had horrible 2 hour wait times but this restaurant did not . Great Service. Great Food. Great location. Best restaurant experience I had in years . It’s so nice. Very upscale, classy , urban vibe . We got there early before reservation like 15/20 mins was able to be seated immediately. Waitress got drink orders and menu orders fast . Food came out quickly 15/20 mins . It was delicious and warm. All the food was delicious. Will go again and recommend it . Great restaurant, probably one of best in Atlanta. Prices were affordable $40/60/100 depending on number of people in group and good portions for food , so you can order a few things and split: try a few things on menu . It’s worth money and experience. Me and friend had lamb burger , fries . Other Friend got waffle and chicken .“

“Diners like this restaurant's flavorful, creative, and seasonal farm-to-table dishes, especially the fry bread with pepperoni butter, and highlight the excellent cocktails and wine selection. They also mention the friendly, attentive staff and the upbeat, inviting atmosphere.“

“Great piece of Atlanta history and an awesome menu.“

“Absolutely Fabulous. The layering of flavors made each bite a special adventure to savored.“

“2nd Visit: Aug 2024 AMAZING. Food, Service, and Staff. It rained, but that did not stop or prevent the stellar experience! Very glad to have returned.“

“We arrived not long before closing, so we didn’t order a lot of food, but the server’s recommendation of fish tacos was excellent. They’re also dog-friendly and brought out a water bowl. We ordered our dog a Puppyburger (which they assured us wasn’t made of puppies). Staff was polite and helpful. Will definitely come back the next time we’re in Cedar Key.“

“Wonderful experience at AC Hotel Downtown Atlanta. We have been traveling around the country for girls travel volleyball since 2018. This was our 18 year old daughter’s last tournament before going to college. Tad and DJ were amazing. Great hospitality and even better personalities! Well done!!“

“absolutely phenomenal wonderful food wonderful decor and wonderful service“

“My husband and I had an incredible dining experience at Georgia Boy. Every course was amazing and the creativity of each dish blew us away. We were sent home with delicious Wonka style candy bars and gave one to our daughter Georgia (who is a huge fan of the Willy Wonka movies) and she was in awe! We will definitely be returning!“

“My fellow traveler and I stopped by on our way home to Virginia. It was a long day of travel, delayed flights, we just wanted to sit down and chill. We didn’t expect much out of an airport restaurant… But we were both blown away. Our server, Tarvis, was charming, professional, knowledgeable, and exceptional. The BLT with bacon jam, and the rice pudding with cinnamon and peaches was superb. (I could’ve eaten a whole jar of the bacon jam.) Tarvis, thank you for making two weary travelers leave your restaurant with pep in their step Keep on shining your light. And to any traveler who is leery of a place that serves a hamburger and a sushi roll… Fear not. This place is great.“

“Nice atmosphere!! Great neighborhood pub!“

“I had the pleasure of visiting Social Capitol shortly after its opening, and I must say—it’s already operating like a well-loved local favorite.

The staff greeted me so kindly, helped me with menu suggestions, and checked up on me just enough; being attentive without ever being intrusive. It’s clear that hospitality is a top priority here.

The food? Exceptional. I had the breakfast sandwich with a side of potatoes and a parfait. Both dishes were beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. You can tell the kitchen takes pride in using fresh, high-quality ingredients. Whether you’re in the mood for a light bite or something hearty, the menu offers a well-balanced variety of items.

What really tied the experience together was the ambiance. The space is wonderfully designed. It’s sophisticated and inviting. It’s the kind of place where you can lose track of time at either dining, chatting, or working on your own thing.

Social Capitol hit everything on the nail - from excellent service and top-tier food, to a relaxing vibe. I’ll definitely be back—and bringing friends.“

“Exceptional service! Our waiter was very attentive. The food was well seasoned and delicious. This establishment is booked weeks and sometimes months ahead of time, that proves how good the food is. I would highly recommend this place. I definitely will be revisiting.“

“I loved this place, the delicious food, if all the cocktails are like the one I select, they are very, very good. However, what I value most is the treatment received from Isabela, the recommendation of the dishes and the drink very well. I imagine that everyone here is as attentive and professional as she is a place of the best ratings that can be offered. She will go a long way in that industry.“

“I highly recommend this chain! It breaks up the monotony of the other quick service bowl restaurants. They offer unique seasonal options for sauces and I love that they will give you the sauce and dressings on the side and you can administer it yourself. Fell in love with the jerk sauce Summer 2025 and I can’t wait to stop by again to try what’s new for fall 2025. Smart concept, quick service, healthy food, and lastly, I love the fact that they offer MOUTHWASH in the restroom.“

“We ordered takeout and got the half rack of ribs, and they were incredible. The meat was fall-off-the-bone tender, juicy, and packed with flavor. I especially loved the fresh-made tortillas that come with the ribs, along with the pickled peppers and pickles. Everything tasted fresh and well thought out.

The potato salad was phenomenal while still being a simple, classic potato salad with pickles, which I really appreciated. We also tried the mac and cheese, and it was simple but very tasty.

Overall, a great takeout experience and definitely something we’ll be coming back for.“

“Food was excellent and the service was great! The location is in the ground floor of a university, which we didn't realize. They cater mainly to students but were very professional and friendly to my family, providing great service and food“

“Great neighborhood hangout with good food and drinks.“

“Under new management, Clarence is awesome“

“Went with friends to the SUNDAY BRUNCH BUFFET and it was INCREDIBLE! They serve brunch EVERY SUNDAY from 10:30am - 2:30pm. Food was delicious and there were so many options (even for my vegetarian friends!), and the atmosphere was so cozy. The owner was super kind and thanked us for coming. I will be going back and telling everybody because this is the best brunch spot in town. Really great value too.“

“Beautiful food and friendly service.“
